Download or read book Implant Bone Interface written by John Older and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An update on current knowledge is given for surgeons and researchers involved in implant surgery and the development of implant arthroplasty. The contributions come from a distinguished international faculty of orthopaedic surgeons, biologists and engineers. They examine the junctional tissues between an implant and the bone in joint replacement surgery. The factors that influence junctional tissues and so affect the life-span of the implant are thoroughly discussed. These include: detailed data on the microscopy of the junctional tissues, the mechanical properties of cement, and the architecture of bone and implant design. The discussions following each contribution give meaningful insight into background information and the controversial aspects of surgical implants.

This book was released on 2013-11-19 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Total joint arthroplasty is an effective surgical procedure for end-stage osteoarthritis of major joints with satisfactory long term clinical outcome. A large and growing number of arthroplasties are performed annually worldwide and a great number of orthopaedic surgeons are practicing arthroplasty surgery as their main surgical activity. The biological behavior of the bone-implant interface is crucial for the long term survival of the artificial joint. All factors which have a positive or negative effect on the interface are of great interest for those practicing arthroplasty surgery. Basic scientists and the industry are continuously searching for new implant fixation mechanisms and improved materials. There is an accumulation of a great amount of basic science data (both biological, material and mechanical) related to the incorporation or loosening of the bone-implant interface. However, basic science data does not always translate to satisfactory clinical application, and orthopaedic practitioners often wonder which piece of information is clinically useful. A further problem is that basic scientists often speak their own scientific language and may not fully appreciate common clinical practice needs. In this textbook the biological and mechanical mechanisms of implant incorporation and loosening will be presented. All new data concerning materials and methods for incorporation enhancement will be critically analyzed. Data useful for clinical application will be stressed. Orthopaedic Surgeons will find information which will improve their clinical practice and basic scientists will be helped to understand and appreciate clinical needs.

This book was released on 2013-09-19 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents analyses of the most commonly reported failure modes of hip stems: loosening and thigh pain; both are attributed to the relative motion and instability at the bone-implant interface due to failure to achieve sufficient primary fixation. The book investigates various factors that could affect primary stability and therefore the long-term outcome of hip arthroplasty. The results complement experimental work carried out in this area as in-vitro experiments have several limitations that could be addressed through computer simulations.

Download or read book The Hip Bone s Connected to the Orthopaedic Implant written by Jordan Raphel and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A vast array of implants are employed clinically to interface directly with living bone. These implants include orthopaedic prostheses, such as artificial hip and knee replacements, orthopaedic bone screws, and dental implants and are commonly made from titanium and its alloys. Over one million joint replacements and screws are implanted each year in the United States. In order for these implants to function successfully, they require strong osseointegration, the stable and functional connection between the implant and bone. Unfortunately, approximately 10% of implants fail prematurely, and many of these failures are due to poor osseointegration leading to implant loosening. Failures also occur due to microbial infection, which can be severely debilitating to the patient and may necessitate the removal of the implant. Approximately 1-3% of implants become infected, creating a large burden for the patients and the healthcare system. In this work, a versatile coating technology for bone-interfacing implants is developed to improve implant osseointegration and to provide defense from microbial infection. The coatings are derived from an engineered, elastin-like protein (ELP) that is recombinantly expressed in Escherichia coli. The ELP contains functional domains from two natural extracellular matrix proteins - elastin and fibronectin - to confer specific mechanical and biochemical properties, respectively. The elastin-like domain provides mechanical toughness and resiliency, while the fibronectin-derived RGD domain is cell-adhesive. Thin-film coatings made from ELP can be processed by a variety of methods to coat implants of any shape or size. To stabilize the coatings and adhere them to implant surfaces, a novel covalent crosslinking strategy is employed. Lysine residues are strategically substituted into the elastin-like domains to provide sites for chemical modification of the ELP through the primary amines present on the lysine side chains. A photoactive heterobifunctional crosslinker, NHS-diazirine, is conjugated through these primary amines, rendering the ELP photocrosslinkable upon exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light. The activated diazirine moiety interposes into neighboring bonds, leading to a covalently crosslinked ELP hydrogel. Furthermore, the diazirine can also covalently conjugate to common implant materials through the same UV-mediated mechanism, thereby creating a stable ELP thin-film coating with strong adhesion to implants. Good osseointegration of implants reduces the chance of aseptic loosening while poor osseointegration allows for micromotion of the implant relative to the bone, causing wear, inflammation, and implant loosening. By encouraging new bone deposition on the implant surface, osseointegration can be improved by stabilizing the bone-implant interface. The ELP coatings are able to enhance osseointegration by interacting with native osteogenic cells, including osteoblasts and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) through the RGD ligand. The presence of the ligand facilitates rapid cell adhesion, and the ELP coatings demonstrate the ability to improve osteogenic differentiation and bone mineral deposition in vitro, key steps for new bone formation and improved osseointegration. The coatings also improve osseointegration markers in vivo. Microbial infection is another leading cause of implant failure. Bacteria readily adhere to implant surfaces and form biofilms resistant to systemic antibiotic treatments, necessitating alternative strategies to prevent and treat implant-site infections. The antimicrobial properties of silver have long been known, and here it is employed as a localized defense against infection by incorporating silver chloride nanoparticles into the ELP coatings. These antimicrobial coatings rapidly kill over 95% of Staphylococcus aureus, the most common implant pathogen. The achievements presented in this work demonstrate significant advancements for implant coating technologies and have strong potential for clinical translation to improve implant function, lifetime, and efficacy.
